意味
A staple dish in Kerala.
文化的背景
Fish curry is often cooked in a 'Manchatti' (clay pot). It is believed that the clay breathes and makes the curry tastier over time. The 'Kottayam style' fish curry is famous for being extremely spicy and dark red, using plenty of 'Kudampuli' (Malabar tamarind). In the North, coconut milk is more frequently used in fish curries, making them creamier compared to the spicy versions of the South. Toddy shops (local bars) are famous for their 'Meen Kari'. It's usually the spiciest version available and is a major tourist attraction.
The 'Next Day' Rule
If you want to sound like a local, say 'Thalennathe meen kari' (Yesterday's fish curry). Everyone knows it tastes better the next day!
Spice Alert
If you order 'Meen Kari' in a local shop, it will be very spicy. Ask for 'Erivu kurachu' (less spice) if you're not ready.
